Glad to see Tyson and McGillicutty getting good exposure. Bray mark now too. I only seen him once prior to this, it was like, his third match, I was too ignorant to look anything up on him, so I was confused as fuck. That promo cleared it up. Much better than Husky Harris.

I'm curious. It seems like a lot of us dug the premier, but will that translate to people hunting it down next week?

If I recall from the spoilers (which I won't post), the people on next week's show are different as the first 4 shows were all taped on one night. So it rotates a bit.

People flamed me around the time I signed up because my username was HuskyHarris, saying that he's shit and has no talent.

Bray Wyatt proves that if you give him the right character the guy is as talented as fucking hell.

Yeah, they tape three shows in a row, each with different people. I don't know if Seth Rollins was next week or "soon" but Cesaro is definitely next week.

The first episode was really good, no doubt about it.
I don't like Bo Dallas and I found Rollins' video promo to be lacking, but Kidd and McGillicutty tore it up in the ME and made up for the weaker parts of the show. Kudos to them.
What really blew me away, though, was The Ascension's entrance. The way it was done, their acting, their postures, the lighting and music, the way it all fit together - that's about as perfect as an entrance in itself can be. Very well done, amazing job by the production team and both Cameron and O'Brien.
I'll be watching next week!

They tape 4 per set. Off the top of my head, Rollins wrestles next week and in week 4.

I was already chasing FCW down every week, so NXT hunting is only different in that it should be easier. I'm sure the shows will improve, and they'd better. The first episode wasn't as good as either of the shows that bastardized it.

**Duke Silver** · 06-22-2012, 11:26 AM

Fresh talent with unlimited potential in Cesaro, Sandow, Rollins, Ohno, Wyatt, Ascension.
Kidd tearing shit up in the main event.
Jim Ross & William Regal on commentary.
Coheed & Cambria theme (instead of pop-rock trash like Green Day/Nickleback)
Effective hype packages.
Wrestling oriented product.

Yeah, this is already better than the dreck WWE are putting out with Raw/Smackdown.

Which is probably why he's in developmental. He got a solid babyface reaction from the crowd, which is a really great sign.

Bo's been in developmental for three years and has been super pushed as a face for much of that time. Of course he's going to get a reaction, since Full Sail is close enough to FCW for a lot of those fans to know who he was already.

That doesn't mean he isn't terrible.
